Saturday night’s Red Hot Hockey matchup with Cornell at Madison Square Garden. Two seasons ago in RHH3 before a sold out MSG crowd, the Terriers edged the Big Red in overtime, 2-1, on a crafty deflection by junior Ross Gaudet.

Looking
ahead

2015
recruit Maxim Letunovscored
his ninth goal of the season and 2014 recruit JJ Piccinich assisted on two
scores for Youngstown but the Phantoms dropped a 4-3 OT
decision to Indiana. In 21
games Piccinich has 19 points while Letunov has 18.

2015
recruit Charlie McAvoy scored a third-period power play goal, then assisted on
another, but the NTDP U17s' rally came up short, with Team USA losing to Fargo, 5-4.
The former NJ Rockets standout defenseman has three goals in the past six
games.

Looking back

Former
Terriers Alex Chiasson and Nick Bonino each scored their seventh goal of the season in the Dallas Stars’ 6-3
win against Anaheim. Bonino’s second-period goal (video)
gave Anaheim a 2-1 lead, but the Stars roared back in the third, with Chiasson
closing the scoring with an empty-netter.

Bonino
has received a 3 year contract
extension for a reported $4.7 million. The former Terrier captain tweeted: “Excited,
thankful and happy to sign an extension with the Ducks! Couldn't think of a
better team and place to spend these next few years!”With a 7-9-16 line in 27 games, Bonino is
just two points away from equaling his career high.

Congratulations to former
Terrier standout Terry Meagher, now in his 31st year behind the Bowdoin
College bench, who has become the sixth Division 3 coach to reach 500 career
wins. Meagher rang up 142 points
(74g, 68a) as BU’s top right wing during Jack Parker’s first three seasons as
BU’s coach. During
his senior year, he was voted ECAC Tournament Most Valuable Player and the
team's most valuable player after leading the team in scoring, while also earning the University's distinguished scholar-athlete award. Terry played in three Frozen Fours and was followed to BU by brothers
Rick Meagher and Tony Meagher.
